The | lows & highs | of weekends that go by way too fast

I got hit - we're talking direct hit - on the nose by the force of a 2 year old’s head |more painful than labor pains I must say|,
there were a few moments strung throughout my weekend where I thought I couldn’t
keep my eyes open since I am currently perpetually exhausted, cleaning out a dishwasher over and over seems like a cruel
joke, my oldest decided to pull his sister on a toy cart where she ended up face
first in a puddle of mud, going to the grocery store with two young children after 5pm is a bad idea to
yeah, yeah, yeah let's look on the bright side I love to spend every moment I can with my
husband and two kiddos.When she hugs me
without force, I feel like a winner, when my boy comes up to me and says Mom,
followed by a question, I feel like a winner.To plant marigolds in our garden and discuss where to place future tomato
plants, I feel like a winner again.
Never did I think the thrust of a toddler's head could land with so much force... knowing this now, winning.
